Building in Love

Church can become a familiar routine shaped by personal preferences and quiet expectations of being served. Christ has brought divided people near through His blood, made them one family, and joined them like stones in a temple where God dwells. Church is a working bee, not a consumer product. Although some seasons require people to receive more care than they can give, the normal pattern is active love, with people coming ready to strengthen one another.
